Upper spark and upper VE tables RPM
I am just starting to modify the bin for my car and noticed the upper spark and upper VE tables only go up to 5600 RPM (1227730 ECU using AXCN bin for base) but I want to run the engine to atleast 6000 RPM....
So what will happen when the computer gets to the end of those tables? Is there a way to extend the tables? So far I am only using GMECM Edit.

Actually the ECM will just use the last row (5600 RPM) of each of those tables. The SA table will probably be flat anyway once you hit 3200-3800 RPM or so.
How much the VE changes between 5600 and 6000 will define that area of the resultant AFR. May not even matter. If it does need to be changed a simple code patch will extend the high speed VE table to 6400 RPM.

(Note: due to not being able to attach a zip file I am unable to distribute the patch file to extend the VE tables to 6400 RPM.

I went and got a old black turbo car that I just spin to 5K RPM.

There is a sticky at the top of this list called 'patch method demo'. The patch will be released in the format described in that post. You'll only need to read the first couple of posts to understand how to apply it. Download the zip on the first post. It will have the S19_PAT utility included.
Because the VE table is now larger I moved it to a new location within the bin. If using a bin editor (such as WinBin or PromEdit) this will need to be taken into account.
If you'd like to cut and paste and give it a go here is the source:
Code:

Would this patch work for the AUJP.bin?
I tried it by copying the patch to a text file then renaming it ve.asm then from a command prompt typed A:\ as11 ve.asm and it gave me an Ve.s19 file back. Then typed A:\ s19_pat ve.s19 0x8000 aujp.bin and it came back and said Done.
Opened the bin in TC and the table still went to only 5600. What did I miss? Or will it just not work on the AUJP.bin?

Swapmaster, besides editing your TDF as 32V_DOHC posted. . . the above patch will NOT work on AUJP. Delete the bin you patched as it is now corrupt.
However, the following is the same patch with the correct code locations for AUJP. The actual code in the EPROM is different between AXCN & AUJP. Hence the need to change the patch-into addresses (check the last area of the patch labeled 'Tap into current code', that is the area I changed).
Here is the patch for AUJP. Assemble & apply it to a fresh bin the same as you did with the previous (AXCN) patch.

Thank you very much.
In the S19_pat command line of s19_pat axcn_ve.s19 0x8000 File2Patch.bin where 0x8000 is the memory location, the 0x8000 needs to be changed to 0x10000 ?
Also will the table location need to be changed in Tuner Cat so it can find it? This may be over my head, and about to get me in trouble.

Ok, I just downloaded the CATS Tuner File Editor and I don't think it's anything a person like me should be messing with. Editing a bin with todays software for a novice is one thing but editing the editor itself is a whole new ball game. I am going to have to study this one for a while before I go any further. I will save the patch and code info for a latter date, much later I imagine.
Do you think if I send the patched bin to CATS that they would modify the TDF for me? Sorry just thinking out loud.
I will keep the info for a later date.
Thanks anyway guys.

On the s19_pat command line leave the 0x8000 as is. It is the physical offset of the EPROM address once placed into the ECM. It is required for the patch utility to properly offset the patch into the bin.
You can always try to edit your TDF. Just make a copy first then play. You will need to change the address of the table and make it two rows larger.

Bringing it back up...
Forgive me for being behind the curve a bit. Im also interested in expanding the VE and timing tables with my ecm. Not to 6000+, but at least past the 3200 and 3600 limits currently imposed. One BIG question in my mind is what about the resolution out there? It looks like that past around 3000 rpm or so the resolution of the ecms DRP counter really starts to suffer. Is the loss of resolution in rpms something to be concerned about? Or does the fact that things start getting pretty linear out there mean that it wont matter that much?

Rrob -Could you upload the patch to Craig's file site?
I assume--- we can patch this code to the bin but we still need the editor to make the actual VE ajustments.

I got some data so I could actually see what the saved DRP's look like. Its obviously a period of some sort but at least now I can see what it looks like. The question I had was a bit more on the theory end of things. Im jsut curious what will happen when I actually try to resolve around 5-5.5K or so. Will it matter much? Or should I just disregard it and go ahead with modifying the VE/spark tables to suite the engines power band? From the graph of the DRP counter, its output starts to flatten out and the difference between values becomes less and less. The top one is a curve fitted to teh actual data, DRP counts to RPM.

My bin is about 6 years old. I do not remember what it originated from. camaro,vette, Manual,auto. -It is a 7730/7727
I would like to patch the extended tables to my bin and then create the editor via tunerpro to make the adjustments. (Really once my bin is patched I should only have to edit the existing TDF/ECU upper VE table to 6400. Not create a whole new table.--Am I correct on this?
Thanks
